2017 Grant Cycle

For the 2017 grant cycle we had received over 320 applications and after a rigorous process of evaluation, selected 23 NGOs to receive grant from HSBC Skills for Life. They collectively will train over 11,000 youth over the next two years and place at least 70% of them in formal employment.

Deloitte is the Monitoring & Evaluation partner in this grant cycle and an orientation workshop was organized in October 2017, in Mumbai to acquaint the NGO with the reporting requirements and our expectations from the projects.

The project is progressing well and as of 31st December 2018 havetrained 5281 youth, 1538 are undergoing training and placed nearly 2324 in employment so far.

The NGOs who are selected under this grant cycle are as below (in alphabetical order).
